Well I'm 17 and I have a few friends (they're 21-25) and they work at Goldman Sachs doing IT work and other computer related things. But it's just that because they get paid pretty well, about 20-30 an hour, and are still in college.

They said they could get me a job there but when I turn 18. Question...if I'm 18 and doing computer work there and it's not related to business or finance or anything, is it easier for me to get a job at analyst level at Goldman Sachs since I'm working there already?? (I'm going to a state college going to study Economics/Finance as double major) or does it not make a difference at all since the IT work has nothing to do with the main purpose of the company?
